We finally racked up enough miles on our Infiniti JX35 to trigger the maintenance minder

We finally racked up enough miles on our Infiniti JX35 to trigger the maintenance minder for its second oil change, oil filter, and tire rotation. Originally this notice popped up on the infotainment screen at 11,250 miles, but after careful examination of the service schedule, we decided to adjust the service intervals from Schedule 1 (more severe driving conditions) to Schedule 2 (less severe). This sets the maintenance intervals at 7500 miles instead of the system's default of 3750.

Driving up to the Central Coast for a weekend-long camping trip, the JX averaged 19.2 mpg.

While the JX was in for its oil service, I also had the power back hatch repaired. Previously, the power back door would open, but would then start closing again as soon as it reached the top of the door strut travel. This caught a few of us off guard, as we would begin loading the cargo area. Infiniti South Bay adjusted the left-side clearance sensor, and the power door now functions normally.
